There are some movie love scenes you never want to be caught dead watching with your parents. Here are ten of the very worst.
It takes a lot of trust to film a sex scene, it's an experience widely lauded by actors to be one of the most awkward. In both the real world and the fake, sexuality has the ability to provoke reactions out of just about anyone. Directors have a powerful opportunity to choose which scenes stand out amongst all the rest, but some of them just make us feel really, really awkward.
In honor of that feeling, here is our list of the 10 Most Painfully Awkward Sex Scenes in Movies .
Steve Carell is no stranger when it comes to the world of awkward, making a name for himself as Michael Scott from The Office , the most awkward character on television. His ability to make you squirm and feel bad for him all at the same time translates beautifully onto the big screen in this train wreck of a sex scene from 2005's The 40 Year Old Virgin . Perhaps because of how excited he is at the prospect of knocking boots, a young Carell neglects to mention to his date that he is insanely ticklish, and she finds out the hard way, culminating in an encounter that scars his character for life, leaving him a virgin until the age of 40. Needless to say, she isn't too happy about her broken nose and goes on to berate him, crushing his self-esteem in the process. Reminding us all how embarrassing it can be to hook up with someone for the first time, The 40 Year Old Virgin is a warning to us all about the importance of communication.
Not even perfect lighting can disguise the lack of chemistry between Malin Ackerman and Patrick Wilson in this sex scene from 2009's Watchmen . As Leonard Cohen's powerful "Hallelujah" echoes overhead, it becomes painfully obvious how mismatched the actors' performances are as they flounder about the control room, completely misaligned. Wilson seems genuinely shocked, while Ackerman plays up the other end of the spectrum. Over-acted and over-polished, this is a sequence that doesn't know it's awkward. Opening in more theatres around the world than any other R rated movie at the time, it's safe to say that lots of people suffered through this spectacle. The silver lining here is that the characters were able to make it a safe distance from the ground before triggering an explosion - someone would have gotten hurt otherwise.
Filmed after their very public real-life breakup, Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake turn up the awkward for this offering from 2011's Bad Teacher . After spending months seducing the hunky new teacher away from a rival at school, Diaz's character 'Elizabeth Halsey' finally gets her chance in bed with Timberlake’s 'Scott Delacorte.' The tryst quickly goes downhill as Diaz realizes this might not be the night of her dreams. During the awkward frenzy, she alternates between confusion an boredom, rolling her eyes all the while. To make matters worse - Scott’s girlfriend hears the whole thing, leading her to believe the affair was a lot sexier than it actually was. Thankfully for Diaz and the audience, it's over almost as quickly as it began, but not before Scott places one last kiss on her forehead, much to her disgust. This scene is proof: beautiful people don't always have beautiful sex.
Assuming the film would automatically be released with a rating of NC-17 due to its subject matter, director Jorma Taccone didn't hold back when it came to this scene from the Saturday Night Live spinoff, MacGruber (pronunciation...debatable). Starting off innocently enough, the sequence gets progressively weirder with every passing second. When the music abruptly stops, the scene becomes stripped of its modesty and reveals the painfully awkward reality of what's going on. As hilarious as it is unpleasant, the dialogue is purposefully horrible and SNL alumni Will Forte and Kristin Wiig deliver it flawlessly. Filmed on Wiig's birthday, her body language may come across as an artistic choice, but is actually only meant to avoid the real-life sweat cascading off the face of her co-star. Happy birthday, Kristin.
One of the most traumatic things that can happen as a kid is to walk in on your parents gettin' down; 2008's Stepbrothers takes that scenario just a little bit further. During Christmas dinner, John C. Reilly and Kathryn Hahn sneak away for a quickie - relocating to the living room, they begin their secret meeting. Things quickly spiral out of control when the couple fall through a door into the dining room, and find themselves front and center during the family's Christmas celebration. Twice. Between Hahn's rendition of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" and Reilly's makeshift alibis, their behavior hardly registers as suspicious. In fact, Hahn's husband even requests that his wife grab him a beer while she's up. The audience sits in a state of perpetual anxiety with the thought that the lovers could be caught at any second, making this scene equally compelling and horrifying.
Despite being offered a sequel, because of the painstaking effort involved in making the 2004 comedy hit Team America: World Police , creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker vowed to never work with puppets again, but not before creating one of the most surprising and memorable sex scenes of all time. Stone and Parker set out to choreograph a display so over-the-top that it would distract the Motion Picture Association of America, the body responsible for assigning movies their ratings, from the other content in the film. Requiring nine edits, a version of the original scene was included in the theatrical release, with the full and uncut scene available in the Unrated version at the insistence of Matt Stone. Perhaps assuming that all puppet movies are kid-friendly, Team America was mistakenly touted as a movie for all ages in some parts of Europe, presumably before anyone there actually watched it.
A coming-of-age story focused around getting it on, American Pie illuminates the insecurities and misconceptions young people deal with when it comes to sex. When one of his so-called "experienced" friends equates the opposite sex to apple pie, Jim Levenstein (Jason Biggs) is determined to do some kitchen research. It doesn't take long for the scene to get majorly awkward - the music alone is enough to make audiences want to jump out of their skin. Jim is caught with his pants down, literally and figuratively, when his Dad returns to their suburban home to find him straddling the decimated dessert. This scene cemented American Pie as one of the raunchiest comedies of the 90's, a designation that still holds up today.
Molly Shannon and Will Ferrell literally and metaphorically get down to business in this entry from 1998's A Night at the Roxbury. Notorious for their ability to make audiences feel painfully awkward, these two don't disappoint. After gaining major exposure on Saturday Night Liv e, the hilarious life of brothers Steve and Doug Butabi were expanded into an endlessly-quotable full-length feature film. Part of the viewers pain comes from Shannon's character so obviously using her sexuality to manipulate Ferrell, yet he hardly protests as she tricks him into merging their family companies and proposing all in one fell swoop. The other part comes from Shannon's penchant for furniture. Closely mirroring a real life fetish called "object sexuality" in which people become attracted to inanimate objects, she lists off all of her favourite housewares, leaving us to wonder if Ferrell actually needs to be there at all. One thing we do know for sure: she really likes Ikea.
What do car washes and futuristic hanky panky have in common? They're both touch-less, a concept that Sylvester Stallone fumbles with in 1993's Demolition Man. After Sandra Bullock drops some science about the link between violence and arousal, she propositions Sly, which seems to confuse him more than anything. Since "fluid transfers" are banned, the characters get down with the use of what can only be described as "sex helmets." Making faces like he's trying to solve a difficult math equation, Stallone delivers one hell of an awkward performance despite his humble beginnings in adult films. Bullock does her best to keep the sequence believable, but the startling edits and quick cuts seem out of place. Between the Love Boat theme and the Tim "The Toolman" Taylor-esque grunts emanating from Stallone, there are enough unsettling elements to get under almost anyone's skin, making this scene an all-around painful experience for everyone.
Possibly the least sexy depiction of sex on our list is this educational opportunity, courtesy of the 1983 Monty Python classic The Meaning of Life . The idea of showing up at school naked is nightmare-inducing for many, but just another day on the job for John Cleese, who plays an eccentric teacher. Hellbent on teaching his pupils about the birds and the bees, he and his wife perform a demonstration for the group of students who couldn't care less. Alternating between bickering with his spouse and disciplining the onlookers, Cleese throws out words like "intercourse" and "coitus" making this scene feel like what it is - a really, REALLY awkward biology class. Monty Python are known for being tongue-in-cheek, but this skit is definitely one of their most outlandish, however scientifically accurate it may be.

Bridesmaids opens on a booty call between Kristen Wiig’s character and Jon Hamm’s, and involves Wiig getting thrown around a lot by the six-foot-two actor. “I am not a small human being,” he told Playboy in 2012. “I weigh at least 200 pounds… and Wiig is a twig, she’s a skinny little thing. I told her, ‘Just punch me in the side if I’m hurting you.”
Sex scenes are awkward enough without adding the fact that your partner is the director. In this case, Kate Winslet’s then-husband Sam Mendes was instructing her and her co-star Leonardo DiCaprio. “I just kept saying, ‘This is too weird,’” she told The Telegraph. “And Leo was like, ‘Oh get over it.’ And I’m going, ‘Yeah a little reminder. You’re my best friend. He’s my husband. This is a bit weird.’” Hopefully Winslet now feels it was worth it, as she won a Golden Globe award for Best Actress for her performance.
Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan had a notorious lack of chemistry in the critically loathed Fifty Shades series, but maybe it can be blamed on the torturous hours they had to spend simulating sex. “It’s pretty tedious,” Johnson told Interview magazine. “We’re not having actual sex. But I’ve been simulating sex for seven hours straight right now, and I’m over it.”
Sex scenes are supposed to be hot and steamy, but things got a little too hot for Robert Pattinson while he was filming with Julianne Moore for Map to the Stars. “It was so hot in Toronto [where the movie was filmed] and she’s one of these people – she doesn’t sweat at all,” Pattinson told Heat magazine. “I sweat a lot. I was literally trying to catch drops of sweat to stop them hitting her back! Afterwards she was like, ‘Are you having a panic attack?’ It was so embarrassing.”
When you’re shooting a sex scene with someone you view as a brother or sister figure, it’s bound to feel a little awkward. For Sienna Miller, working on the crime drama Live by Night with Ben Stiller was fine until it came to the bedroom scenes. “It’s hysterical,” she told E! News. “There was a lot of stupid giggling. He was very professional – I am not, but he is. Obviously by the time nine hours of it has gone past, I was shaking with tears running down my face. You have to laugh.”
Those awkward teenage years provide the backdrop for Judd Apatow’s hit comedy Superbad, but it’s unlikely actor Christopher Mintz-Plasse thought it would result in an awkward moment of his own. Because he was underage when he played McLovin, his mother had to accompany him on set – including for a scene where his character loses his virginity. “I had to fake intercourse in front of her,” he told GQ. Yikes.
Game of Thrones drew a lot of criticism for its portrayals of sex, but it sounds like the cast had fun filming at least a few of them. Emilia Clarke, who is now firm friends with her former co-star Jason Momoa, went into hysterics when he decided to switch a normal modesty sock for a fluffy pink one.
Ryan Reynolds admitted to Jay Leno that he accidentally removed co-star Olivia Wilde’s nipple pasties while shooting The Change-Up, then tried to put them back on again. “She has those pasties on, but she’s drawn those adorable little smiley faces on them,” he said. “And I forget every line in the scene – not just from this movie but from every other movie I’ve done. At some point she takes my hands and puts them on her breasts… I take my hands away and I look down at my hands and there’s two frickin’ smiley faces on them and I have no idea what to do. And I, reflexively, like an idiot, just put my hands right back on her breasts.”
While most actors would worry about getting “over-excited”, Gucci Mane had the opposite problem. The rapper, who was so tired by the time he arrived on set from a concert in St Petersburg, he fell asleep during a sex scene. Director Harmony Korine told Vulture he blamed it on the weed Mane and his entourage had been smoking all day. “I’d never in my life filmed a sex scene when the dude was sleeping… and she was on top of him for a good 45 minutes,” he said.
One of the most talked-about sex scene mishaps emerged when Henry Cavill admitted he got “over-excited” while shooting a scene for The Tudors. He told Men’s Fitness: “A girl had to be on top of me, and I hadn’t rearranged my ‘stuff’ into a harmless position. She’s basically rubbing herself all over me and um, it got a bit hard. I had to apologise profusely afterward. It’s not great when you’re in a professional acting environment and somebody gets [excited] is it? No, not acceptable.”
Anne Hathaway experienced one of her most embarrassing moments while shooting Love & Other drugs with Jake Gyllenhaal when she accidentally flashed the entire crew. “I have to remove my trench coat and be nude underneath,” she told Hollywood Life. “And I thought we were filming, but it turned out we were just rehearsing and I got unnecessarily [unclothed] in front of a lot of people!”
Jesse Metcalfe revealed he got a little overexcited in his gardener's first ever sex scene with Eva Longoria’s character. “We were rehearsing," he told radio station 106.5 Sacramento, "and then the director was like, 'OK, get out of bed, we have to reset the set,’ and I was like, 'I need a minute.'"
There’s nothing like a fart to ruin the mood, and no one knows that better than Kristen Schaal who let one rip on Will Forte. "Carol is aggressively and sexually talking to Phil – that's a lot of diaphragm work, which is also in the danger zone of where the beans are,” she revealed on Late Night with Seth Meyers. "Finally, I just looked at Will and I was like, 'I’m gonna fart on you.' And I did. If you fart on your scene partner it's the most intimate you can get."
Allison Janney’s first ever sex scene was with Michael Lerner and it led to the latter being taken to hospital. “We had to have sex up against a wall and they started spraying us with glistening stuff to make us look sweaty, but no one seemed to realise that we were standing on a marble floor,” she told People. “They said action and he… pulled me up against the wall and his feet slipped out from under him and he went crashing down on the floor.”
Having sex on a pile of money, as Margot Robbie discovered, can really do some damage to your back. Recalling a scene she filmed with Leonardo DiCaprio, she told The Daily Beast: “I got a million paper cuts on my back from all that money! It’s not as glamorous as it sounds… when I got up off the bed, I turned around to get my robe and everyone gasped. I said, ‘What is it?’ And they said, ‘You look like you’ve been whipped a million times. Your back is covered in a thousand red scratches.’”
When Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt went in for their characters’ first kiss, their bulky spacesuit chest plates got in the way a little. "We didn't know that was going to happen,” Lawrence told USA Today. “So they called 'Action’ and we went to kiss. And it was like, Donk! Donk! Our heads couldn’t reach each other. We had a good laugh about it, and we incorporated it into the movie."
A slight wardrobe mishap made an intimate scene between Aisling Bea and Paul Rudd pretty awkward. "We had a very funny moment when the nipple covers I was wearing slipped off mid-way through a sex scene.” Bea told Sunday World magazine. “I guess they were just a bit sweaty, and I looked down and they were gone.”
Director David Yates revealed that Margot Robbie – who played Jane opposite Alexander Skarsgård's Tarzan – may have got a bit carried away during the filming of a sex scene. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, he said he asked Robbie to slap Skarsgård while their characters were making love. “The only bruise he picked up during the entire shoot was probably that punch from Margot. Which says a lot about her feistiness."
A slight wardrobe mishap made an intimate scene between Aisling Bea and Paul Rudd pretty awkward. "We had a very funny moment when the nipple covers I was wearing slipped off mid-way through a sex scene.” Bea told Sunday World magazine. “I guess they were just a bit sweaty, and I looked down and they were gone.”
Unfortunately for Dave Franco, the morning of his sex scene with Halston Stage he woke up with a spotty bottom. "I had a giant pimple on my ass... It sucks, right?” he told E! News. “I had to go to the makeup artist and be like, 'Can we go in the other room and you'll put makeup literally on my as
